Rafael Septien's 42-yard FG 4:38 into overtime sent the Bucs to an 0-6 start on the 1983 season. Cedric Brown intercepted Danny White inside the two minute warning and with the Bucs leading 24-17.

But Tampa Bay could not run out the clock and after punting, Timmy Newsome took the fifth play of the Dallas drive down the sideline for the tying score with 47 seconds left. In overtime, the Cowboys missed a 50-yard FG to win the game, only for Thomas Morris to be called for roughing the kicker.

Four plays later, Septien made amends with the game-winner. We can't play any better" said John McKay. "I think we are the best 0-6 team in the NFL."
